Servant of God

James 1:1 (ESV)

1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion:Greetings.

If you are saved, you are a bond servant of God. You belong to him—heart, soul, strength. You are called upon to love him with the entirety of your being. Is this how you think of yourself? Do you define yourself in this way? You should give yourself anew to the service and the will of the King; to say, whatever my God ordains is right. I submit to your holy calling, I submit to your tutorage, and I submit to your law.1
